Create your own unique profile!
In the Bachelor of Science Tourism, you can create a tailor-made study programme with a minor.
The first semester of the 3rd year consists of 30 ECTS continuous free choice space. Students may choose to fill this space by taking individual courses of their own interest. This may also be done at another university, either in the Netherlands or abroad.
A minor can be used as a side step to another discipline or as preparation for your continuing education.
